Publisher's summary

Create a health span that matches your life span!

Most of us believe that aging is accompanied by a sharp decline in our physical and mental abilities.

This program presents the new science of staying healthy - otherwise known as ultraprevention. This powerful medicine of the future shatters the myths of today's "fix-the-broken-parts" medicine. Instead of masking symptoms, it's a proven plan for identifying and eliminating the forces that cause more than 90 percent of today's most common and devastating diseases. It's a patient-centered plan that shows you how to create a lifetime of good health.

In The Five Forces of Wellness: The Ultraprevention System for Living an Active, Age-Defying, Disease-Free Life, you'll learn what's best for your body. Among other things, you'll determine...

  • How to prevent disease from ravaging your body, using the medically proven "remove, repair, and recharge" system.
  • Which foods make you thrive and which make you sick.
  • How you can decrease the activity of the genes that will create illness and increase the activity of the genes that will create wellness.
  • Why you should never go on a diet and how to lose weight without going on a diet.
  • What kinds of vitamins you need and how much.
  • Whether your body does better with vigorous exercise or more gentle exercise.
  • How to identify and rid yourself of toxins that make you sick.

Great information

This contains very useful information. I agree with others about using the workbook to benefit your own personal health challenges. If you go to his site, purchasing the workbook doesn't seem to be an option.

Great information for functional food

I highly recommend this book for anyone who want to move away from old western medicine. Food is medicine.

Great source of info

Loved this audio book. it seems to be the source document for many of Dr. Hyman's Ultra books. Although the book is a bit dated, I think that it was before it's time. Many of the concepts are Functional Medicine principles before they became as popular as they are now.

Ten Stars

If you could sum up The Five Forces of Wellness in three words, what would they be?

Dr. Hyman knocks it out of the park AGAIN. He continues to tell us how to be well, how to heal our diseases and exposes Big Pharma and Big Food to us "simple folk." I have read and participated in the 10 Day Detox program and have been healed of a multitude of issues and lost weight. This program goes into greater detail explaining why we are sick, and the effects of toxins, chemicals and poisons in our systems. He is the new science, the new medicine and the new doctor, and, truthfully, there is nothing "new" here in terms of what we should eat - organic, pesticide free, whole foods that our Creator gave us, what our grandparents grew in their farms and ate. Have a listen - apply it - and watch what happens.

What other book might you compare The Five Forces of Wellness to and why?
